It has been easier this round to submit complaints etc. as it deals mainly with the issue of not declaring Related Party Transactions.
I was able to submit to CSC, Rio Tinto, and auditor PKF

It was with great pleasure to submit complaints through the companies whistleblower hotline hotline. I got carried away and submitted three:

1. A complaint about why there was no declaration as to related parties.
2. Why the company Barker Tilley did not pick up on the missed declarations as to related party transactions.
3. Why did MIRL pick the same firm, Barker Tilly as it did in 2016. Was it the same individual staff at Barker Tilley in 2001 and 2016.

Thank you for making submissions (346-388 and 750-831 on November 9 and 25, 2021, respectively) to the Office of the Whistleblower of the Ontario Securities Commission (OSC). We note that the subject entity, Minera IRL Limited, you identified in your submission has the British Columbia Securities Commission (BCSC) as its principal regulator.

As such, the misconduct that you allege appears to fall within the jurisdiction of the BCSC to review. We encourage you to contact the BCSC directly to report the misconduct you allege in your submission. To that end, I am including herein a link to the BCSC's "Contact Us" page which also provides the ability to report a concern under the heading "Complaints or Concerns": bcsc.bc.ca

This is pathetic German Boy. You are not fooling anyone here.
It is a serious accusation you make regarding Mark making death threats, of which there is no evidence whatsoever.
What there is evidence of, is that the CEO, board members, potential board member Mount, and other sundry apparatchiks at Minera are obfuscating and avoiding answering awkward questions, and they must be held to account. I for one am 100% behind Mark and the CS group, so I suggest you remove yourself from this board as you have no credibility. No offence!

There is a simple answer for Mr Mount. Pick the phone up, and answer the questions coming from the other end like a professional.

I'm sorry, I'm not convinced. Some time ago I emailed Benevides to ask him if he had a programme detailing the financing and development of the Ollachea project, and also when I might expect MIRL to refloat on the UK AIM market. I got no reply, but after sending a reminder email, I got a reply from Pedro Valdez, which provided no answers but asked for patience. Clearly not good enough by far.
If MIRL do not have a basic document like a programme by which progress can be measured, it tells me there is something seriously wrong, and that the management is grossly incompetent.
It is time the swamp here was drained, and the CS group must see it through if we are to have any chance of seeing a return on our investment.

As MIRL deliberately limits any third party investigation to the specific complaints made to its Ethics Hotline (aka whistleblower hotline) we strongly urge CS members and shareholders to submit complaints under the follow subjects. They are obliged to act and it won't be so easy to wriggle out of real answers this time. Please consider making denouncement of corporate wrongdoings regarding any or all of the following to the Minera IRL Ethics hotline:

1) The company's dereliction of accounting duty under IAS24 (i.e. not disclosing Related Party Transactions) in its quarterly and annual financials since 2016, the point from which Diego Benavides became CEO of Minera IRL Ltd.

2) The repeated choice of Baker Tilly (Peru) as "independent" auditor, the same entity that cleared Diego Benavides from wrongdoings in 2016. Specifically ask whether Diego Benavides has personal friends at Baker Tilly (Peru)

3) The number of separate payment made to Patricia Kent, Felipe Benavides and Marco Arevalo since 2016 4) The total amount of payments made to Patricia Kent, Felipe Benavides, Marco Arevalo since 2016

5) The total amount of money paid per quarter in Related Party Transactions since 2016.

6) The refusal to disclose material conclusions from the auditor report citing claims of confidentiality
7) The refusal of the Corporate Communications Manager and Investor Relations Manager to engage with shareholders and provide meaningful answers, often to the most basic of questions.
8) The company should provide more details of the hiring process that saw close personal friends arrive at the company and given executive-level jobs, despite being unqualified for the posts

Feel free to add your own complaint(s). They have closed their Special Committee on the serious allegations, all while avoiding the real answers? Fine, we submit our new complaints and they will be forced to open another under their own bylaws. Governability means something and they must be required to answer to the owners of the company, no matter whether before or after the AGM.

2 a) What were the terms of reference set for the work by Baker Tilly (Peru)?

Who set these terms of reference?

Where these agreed by the whole of the board ?

Why have these terms of reference not been disclosed to the shareholders?
